Finally, an interesting question amidst the theological swamp. . .It is possible that this person was just a man. But if he was, we are talking about a psychology and philosophy that is so far advanced it rivals any great thinker in Western Civilization. Yeshua held modern concepts of (1) social class, (2) treatment of women, (3) pitfalls of monetary greed, (4) you don't need to attend a place to have a relationship with god - a thought that could get you killed, (5) sick people weren't being 'punished' and it wasn't their own fault. The list of groundbreaking concepts goes on and on. I tend to think that this guy was just a man with a lot of writing attributed to him. . .but if half of the stuff was true, we are talking about one of the philosophical giants here.
